I had a good host. I booked this room less than a day in advance, I did not take advantage of instant booking and shortly after my checkin time the room was ready. If I asked for something such as cooking supplies, I got it. He made sure I had some TV channels which meant I got to watch a western oriented channel called Fox Thai in English. This place is good for people looking to get away from the tourist areas and don't mind a lengthy walk or cab ride to the Sky train. You will have a less western and more Thai-like experience.
